Brent Lewin Captures Elephants in Unnatural Habitats

A secluded suburb in Bang Bua Thong, Thailand is the home to over 1,500 hundred elephants, which are the subjects of Brent Lewin's sentimental elephant photography.

The apartments came to be a habitat for these majestic creatures after the 1997 Asian economic crisis, which saw farmers transporting elephants to Bangkok for the purposes of tourist attraction. Allowing tourists to pet and feed the animals provides the farmers with additional income following the cessation of rice planting season.
